That's lame. It's pretty weak DLC and I'd feel ripped off paying anything for it. It's just four timed score-based missions with some extra skins you can only use while playing the extra missions.

im probably in the minority here but my wallet says thanks to the PSN update today. i guess i coulda used some demos though. =\
Kind of a weak update considering that we skipped a week, but oh well. I have enough backlogged Rock Band DLC as it is, if I feel compelled to spend money this week. Plus I still need to buy Suikoden (I own the disc, but it's for the principle of the thing. Plus I'm just happy they didn't use the original boxart).

Japanese store does suck this cycle. Well, other than the Demon's Soul Promo video...Anyone check that out? Cuboid looks pretty sweet I must have missed this one because today is the first I've heard of it.

I have been waiting for savage moon for so long! I have a proposition to any european players out there: if you buy savage moon on a european psn account and then give me the details, I'll buy you lumines on an american psn account and give you the details. Or anything similar that ends with me getting savage moon! Please!

As to global cert, if I remember right, they changed it to one submission only across all areas. So one fee, so it is easier for developers. However, they can get approved at different times or not at all in the various areas. So they pay one fee up front but then they can fail the PAL and pass US for example, so one will go through but the other will be held up and need to be fixed up.
As to PS1 games, Sony have said that something like DLC was not anticipated back then, so a lot of the rights were tied up with individual publishers in each individual zone for all future releases. This was so that they could later release those 20 in 1 discs with games.
However, this also meant that each and every game now needs approval from each developer in each separate zone, even though it was originally developed in parallel. So while some are more receptive than others, you also have to keep in mind that some publishers no longer exist, or have been absorbed and to top it all off we are still getting those 20 in 1 game discs (I think Sega has one coming next month for PS2 or PS3).

If you're unsure, try the free Flash version that this game is (supposedly) based on:

I always love Mahjong based puzzle games, and I'm in the mood for some casual gaming, so I think I'll give Mahjong tales a try.

D3PUBLISHER REVEALS AN ACE UP THEIR SLEEVE WITH NEW GAME TEXAS CHEAT EM FROM DEVELOPER WIDELOAD GAMES
LOS ANGELES January 8, 2009 Theres No Limit to the fast-paced, frenetic action poker players will enjoy with D3Publishers newly announced game, Texas Cheat Em, from fan favorite developer Wideload Games. Texas Cheat Em is a new take on the classic Texas Hold Em rules, turning an average online poker table upside down by layering party games and other gambling minigames on top of the basic rules, and allowing players to cheat to win! Gamers of all levels can hoodwink their opponents in Texas Cheat Em; novice competitors who craft good cheating strategies by using x-ray vision, pre-cognition, chip stealing, card swapping and more can defeat more veteran card players. The game is confirmed for Xbox LIVE® Arcade for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®Store for PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system for Spring 2009 and Windows PC at a later date.
Alex Seropian and the team at Wideload know how to make great games, and their trademark quirky sense of humor abounds in Texas Cheat Em, said Pete Andrew, vice president of product development, D3Publisher. We feel confident that the comedic tone, party atmosphere and interactivity of Texas Cheat Em are tailor-made for todays casual online gaming audience.
We upped the ante on traditional online poker and set Texas Cheat Em in a decidedly irreverent world where players can do what theyve always wanted to do cheat! said Scott Corley, Director of Wideload Shorts. Its a hilarious online card playing experience that gets even more fun as players become cheating masters.
Cheating is FUNdamental in Texas Cheat Em! Cheat attacks are earned by players through more than a dozen minigames like Roulette, Slot Machines, Dice or Rock, Paper, Scissors. Texas Cheat Em replaces time usually spent waiting for others to deal or bet in online poker with loads of fun planning cheats or playing minigames, and offers single-player as well as multiplayer options for up to eight players for a truly unique and robust gameplay experience. Online features are a priority for Texas Cheat Em. All versions will support voice chat and Leaderboards, both console versions will support Achievements/ Entitlements, and the Xbox LIVE Arcade version will support Party Chat and Avatars.
Texas Cheat Em is a Wideload Shorts production. The game is rated T (Teen, Ages Thirteen and Older Simulated Gambling) by the ESRB. For more information about Texas Cheat Em, please visit www.d3publisher.com.

I'm so frustrated with this no demo stuff on so many PSN games. No demo, no preview impressions, no prerelease press reviews, no user reviews. This cuboid game interests me and I know it's only $10, but I'm so annoyed at Sony expecting me to blindly buy these games.

At least they have a preview video on the store.
That sold me on it alone actually.

Insane For Sony
Lord Error said:
Somebody mentioned in the announcement thread that the original author was involved in this, not sure if it's true since I haven't been able to find a source on this. What I know is that some of the puzzles are exactly the same, which is quite different from just copying an old puzzle concept, so I hope it's true that the original author at least got some monetary reward for this.

Can't you guys just grab it from the American/Hong Kong store instead?
linsivvi said:
Yes and I already have an American account setup which I have purchased from in the past.
But if I have a problem in the future or Sony decides to let us redownload purchased games on future consoles then I would like to have it all on one account. And if they ever decide to stop users making or using foreign accounts then I'll lose my rights to it.
I would also like to share it with my brother who has my Aussie account details.
It's ridiculous. I guess this thread isn't the best place to ask but how does MS treat their Euro/Aussie users. Is it the same deal as SCE?

thanks!
Some updates for the OP. All changes are listed in bold.
Also, how to we know that Blood Omen and Pandemonium are bound for the PSN store? It doesn't mention anything about PSP/Playstation 3 on the ESRB site, just PlayStation/PS one. (And there's like 1400 other PS one games classified on the site)

Cuboid is really cool.bryehn said:
Anyone think the QORE footage of F.E.A.R. 2 is all PC footage and the PS3 version will absolutely NOT look that good? Seriously, it looks great imo.
Also I cannot BELIEVE how good KZ 2 looks in the QORE videos. They just keep fucking improving that engine til the very end. It's like they improved the motion blur or something - there was a quality to the visuals that I have not seen before. The game literally looks like playable CG and about 5x better than the graphics in the MP beta.
